gasket maker sealent help

[beko1987]

Just been and bought a can of this for the meriva

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Wynns-1831054-57680-200ml-Gasket/dp/B000Y8U9OK

 

The destructions state to apply the bead, then reassemble lightly until the product starts squeezing out, then tighten up a bit after one hour, allow to cure for 24h then fully tighten

 

Hbol says to apply the bead, let it cure then reassemble.

 

Anyone had any experience with this? Wanna get it done on saturday/Sunday, so any whiter tips would be appreciated.

Hbol says...

"HBoL" says it all.

I'd follow the instructions on the product. How would Haynes know better than the manufacturer?

The HBOL notes will be for another product, or general gasket gunk procedure.

Used this last week on fiesta thermostat housing.

 

Apply bead and fit.

 

Job done.

He he glad I questioned hbol!

 

Glad to hear it works from someone too. Gives me some hope. Will follow the PDF I got after scanning the qr code to the letter!

You should NEVER read the instructions until after you have done it, that is the golden rule

[Timewaster]

You should NEVER read the instructions until after it has gone completely tits up, that is the golden rule

EFA.

Yeah, apply sealant and assemble. Don't cure first. Just make sure it's all degreased and dry with this stuff.
